Happy New Year?

Time for those resolutions again. Must spend more time with my pastels! Must work, not just enjoy. Work means trial and error, making pictures that aren’t all first-rate, just to get moving and experimenting, shaking out the old stuff in order to renew myself. It’s a difficult thing to do because it means some awful stuff will be done in the name of progress. So I’ll go through it and throw the stuff out afterwards —- or keep it remind myself where I had been! (With luck and perseverance!).
